I want to buy my first joystick. Thought about the Logitech 3D pro but i want to explore my options.
Anything with Hall effect sensors?
Thrustmaster Hotas One or Thrustmaster Hotas X. 
Would help if you told us what you like to fly and if you want to use it for other games. eg I fly an Airbus, almost exclusively and use the Thrustmaster Airbus joystick. That might not work well for military simmers who want a huge number of buttons and might need a more robust piece of kit.
only MSFS.
and yes i seem to prefer airbus. but i do like the 787 at times
@Delta2k5 anything cheaper than those?
I’d look for a secondhand MS sidewinder2 FFB stick. They are very high quality and will outlast anything you buy new. The FFB isn’t well supported in MSFS but even without that they work well

This is a small reviewi made a while ago. Hopefully it helps a bit.
the most expensive one you said isnt available here in india.
should i just go with the logitech one? its pretty cheap
if you want a ready to go, easy to use and multiple axes joystick, the logitech is just fine.
I gave a relative new one away (to a newcomer to MSFS) and he is enjoying it very much as i did for many years. Its a great tool to find out if flightsimming is something for you without spending a lot of money. it has X,Y,Z axes, a hat-switch and a throttlewheel and plenty of programmable buttons to assign the basic actions you want. Enough to get you on your way and enjoy the sim without using only the keyboard.
